Hello everyone,
This week will be an informal meeting. We'll be providing several different letters for priority action cases. These are high profile individuals who are being detained, or whose whereabouts are not known, simply because of peacefully exercising their right to freely express themselves. We will have one case each from: the Democratic Republic of Congo, Libya, Turkey, China, Gambia, and Myanmar. In addition, we'll also be continuing our special focus case on the Women of Zimbabwe Arise (WOZA) movement.
For anyone interested, or anyone who needs a break from midterm studying, we'll also be doing dinner and sign painting (maybe) after the meeting.
Reminder: Next Wednesday, from 5:00-7:00pm, we'll be participating in a rally for accountability for abuses in the War on Terror. It's being held in Atlanta, at the intersection of 14th and Peachtree Streets in the heart of Midtown -- should be a lot of fun (we'll be in jumpsuits and business suits) and get the chance to meet some other Amnesty activists from the Atlanta area. We can grab dinner afterward, too!
